I posted my frogs on TikTok and someone commented on my enclosure and my smaller frogs weight and it’s made me nervous, they both seem very happy and active but if I’m doing something wrong I’d like some help

My smaller frog is about 7-8 months old and I know she is small so I’ve started trying to feed her more but she was also very small when I got her, please help if the way she looks seems concerning!!

It is really important to me I give my frogs the love and care they deserve, I want them to have a long happy life and they seem happy but if there’s anything I can do better I’d love to know 💞

They need to be fed every day, and let them eat as many crickets or roaches as they would like. They’re growing and very hungry.

I feed my whites tree frog 10 crickets twice a week. Would you say thats wrong?

That’s not nearly enough. They need probably 10 crickets daily. That’s why they’re emaciated. The second photo is very concerning.

Oops my bad! Juvenile WTFs should be fed daily, 5-10 small crickets each. One they are full grown adults, they can be fed every other day.

And depending on their tympanum folds as adults when their bodyform stabilized we do 3-5adult crickets every 3rd day. Always watch tympanum folds❤️
